    deptry 0.14.0 was just released, bringing significant speed improvements: It is now up to 10 times faster than the previous release! For those unfamiliar with deptry; deptry is a command line tool to check for issues with dependencies in a Python project, such as unused or missing dependencies. GitHub: https://github.com/fpgmaas/deptry For some benchmarks of the new release, see the release notes: https://github.com/fpgmaas/deptry/releases/tag/0.14.0 The performance improvement was achieved by leveraging Rust to parse the AST and extract…

    Mirroring PyPI packages for environments/networks that do not have access to the Internet is hard. It's actually hard even in environments that do have access to the Internet. Most solutions out there either: 1. Depend on pip to download and cache package distributions. This means those downloads will probably only work in a similar environment (same Python interpreter, same libc), because of the nature of binary package distributions and the fact that packages have optional dependencies for different environments. 2. Depend on other PyPI packages, meaning installing the mirror in a…

    Hello all, Very excited to share this project with you all! Panoptisch scans your Python file or module to find it's imports (aka dependencies) and recursively does so for all dependencies and sub-dependencies. It then generates a dependency tree in JSON for you to parse and enforce import policies. Supply chain attacks are no joke, and this is one way to transparently analyze your dependencies to see if any malicious imports are taking place. For example, your yaml parser, nor it's sub-dependencies should import socket, or sys. Panoptisch is in early stages, with known limitations (for…

    Pipask is a drop-in replacement for pip that addresses a serious security flaw: standard pip executes arbitrary code from source distributions during dependency resolution, without warning or consent. Pipask retrieves metadata through PyPI's JSON API first, then checks repository popularity, download counts, package age, and known vulnerabilities before allowing installation. It presents you with a pretty report and asks for you consent with installation, giving you control over what code runs on your system. More details in the intro blog post:…

    I’ve been working on Pyra for the past few months and wanted to start sharing it in public. Right now it’s focused on the core package/project management workflow: Python installs, init, add/remove, lockfiles, env sync, and running commands in the managed env. The bigger thing I’m exploring is whether Python could eventually support a more cohesive toolchain story overall, more in the direction of Bun: not just packaging, but maybe over time testing, tasks, notebooks, and other common workflow tools feeling like one system instead of a bunch of separate pieces. It’s still early,…
